Abstract

Reaction of C2O42− with Sr2+ ions in the presence of a polymeric additive, poly(methacrylic acid), leads to the formation of dumbbell-shaped SrC2O4 aggregates consisting of two dandelion-like heads composed of rod-like strontium oxalate dihydrate (SOD) crystals. The formation of the unusual aggregated structures is essentially in accord with a fractal growth mechanism.
